What to expect
College plumbing programs combine classroom instruction with shop practice on pipe fitting, drain-waste-vent systems, water supply, fixtures and code. Most students finish a certificate in one to two years, and credits often count toward an associate degree. Graduates typically enter the trade as an apprentice or helper, and many programs help with job placement. Ask the admissions office about start dates, in-district tuition, financial aid and whether your hours count toward a plumbing license.
